More Quotes from Jerry Bailey:
You're either a hero or a goat. I guess I'll go eat hay tonight. I think Silver Tree was probably the best horse. But going into a turf race with a lot of speed, I knew it would probably set up that way. It didn't open up in time for me. I played the hand that was dealt me. It just wasn't enough.Jerry Bailey
You can only hope to get a good spot and wait for a hole to pen up. I guess today it came a bit too late. I guess you could say I went out with a bang, because Silver Tree kicked me in the paddock. If I weren't in so much pain going into the gate, I probably would have broken down. The crowd was beautiful. I just hope more of them bet to place than to win.

If I had to pinpoint a race for me, it would be the Dubai World Cup with Cigar. Not only was it a victory for me, but I was representing the United States. It was as close to being an Olympian as I could probably ever be.

You shouldn't dismiss the fact that the post this horse had breaking. He took the worse of it today, and still was very authoritative in winning.

Commentator, ridden by Gary Stevens, was another 12 1 2 lengths back, with Show Boot and Crafty Player bringing up the rear, another 47 1 2 lengths behind. I dont think he needed the rabbits, ... You just dont want to gut him chasing a horse today with 4 million on the line six weeks from now.
